My first ever inoculation pf tek
    #22459308 - 10/31/15 08:49 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

So I didn't wait overnight. My jars seemed cool after 6 hours . I used a sab. I didn't use ty vec sleeves. So it went well but not great. My first concern is flaming the needle between jars. Does the high heat kill/harm the spores that are in the needle ? It definetly crackled. Than the multi pore tape wouldn't come off. I had to scrape where the holes were with a knife to expose the holes. Now I'm left with sticky tape on the top of lids. Kind of like peeling a sticker off something and you give up and it looks like crap. I'm worried contams are gonna build quickly because of this. Lastly where exactly should I put the jars now ? Plus if there were going to be contams how quick will they show up ? Will I know in a few days ? If anyone can answer these questions I would appreciate it

I did inject through the tape. But when I was done I thought I suppose to remove the tape. That's when I couldn't get the crap off. Used a knife and started scraping. I hope the sticky lids with tape and shit on them doesn't fuck me. I'm sure it will though. It's like a magnet for everything now. I'll never use tape again. Where do I store these things ? Do you know if heating needle ruins the spores in the needle ?

You should be fine. the dry verm layer is a good filter to keep out contaminates. Sit them on a shelf, forget about them for a week and be careful not to disturb the dry verm layer by picking them up and moving them a lot. Do not put the foil back over the jars. Good luck.

The holes provide gas exchange, if you cover them your cakes may stall, or trap moisture making your dry verm layer wet, which can cause contaminates. This is also why you leave the foil off. Dry verm is a good filter, wet verm sucks.
